FrostBite kits

Ready-made ice bundles tuned to the way you fish

Each FrostBite kit is a small map: shelter, auger, storage and tackle laid out so you can just follow the order in the box.

Start with a solo lane, grow into a weekend tent or jump straight to a sled that carries the whole crew.

Packing matrix

Match a simple kit to how you travel to the ice

Walk, drive or ride — each lane has a kit that respects your space.

Travel Suggested kit Why it fits

On foot Ultra-light solo layout with soft backpack rod tube. Stays under one shoulder and clears narrow paths.

Small car Weekend tent kit with folding sled and flat crates. Packs into a short trunk without fighting seat backs.

Truck or van Family sled cluster with wide sled and tall seat-boxes. Uses floor space, not just trunk height, for smooth loading.

Wall-mounted board with different ice fishing kit checklists pinned in rows — Hang your kit matrix where you grab keys so ice trips stay simple.

Solo starter

See exactly what lives inside one light kit

We keep the solo starter tight: one shelter, one drill, one seat and one small box laid out in a simple line.

One pull direction

All parts stack into a single line on the floor so you know what to grab first.

Soft bundle straps

Shelter and drill wrap around the box so the kit carries like one heavy backpack.

Weather lanes

Three kit bands for mild, deep and bitter cold

Augers & power

Match drills and batteries to the bundle, not the other way round

Each kit notes which augers fit, how many holes you can cut and where to stash spares.

Hand auger lane

Classic spiral drills with folding handles and blades sized for lighter combos.

Pre-rigged rods

Let each kit leave home with lines already tied

Every FrostBite kit suggests how many rods to rig and which lures to park on each one, so you are never tying in the wind.

Search rod

One slightly heavier combo with a bright spoon for quick hole-hopping passes.

Stay rod

Finesse jig on a soft tip that simply stays down while you drill the next hole.

Spare rod

Backup combo with plain mono for when ice or fish chew up the main line.

Pre-rigged ice rods lined up indoors with different lures tied on — Three rods, three roles — each kit notes which lure belongs where.

Pre-tied ice fishing rigs stored on a foam board with labels — Spare rigs ride on labeled foam so retying is just a quick swap.

Interior of an ice shelter with a family sitting on seat-boxes — Family kits keep rods short, seats padded and hot drinks within arm’s reach.

Family modes

Nudge any kit toward solo, duo or full crew

Start light and add only a few pieces when kids or friends join the ice day.

Solo calm

One seat-box, one heater and one rod rack that fits beside your boots.

Friend lane

Add a second seat-box and extra rod so both of you face the same pair of holes.

Family circle

Rod sleeves

Color bands match each kit lane so you grab the right combo in the dark.

Tiny parts box

Micro box for snaps, swivels and spare hooks that drops into any crate.

Off-season
